1. Beautiful socks and I can almost smell those lilacs – I love the scent of lilacs!!

2. Those are really pretty. I really love purples and greens together.

3. So close and they’re both so pretty!!

4. I’m sure you’ll have them done by the end of the day. 🙂 So weird that the lilacs are blooming in April. They are one of my favorite flowers. Such a heady fragrance too.

5. I wish my DH hadn’t torn out our lilac bush. They are one of my favorites.

6. I know you will! I was so inspired, I broke down and bought some lilac colored sock yarn from Birds Nest Yarn on Etsy. It’s gorgeous. And I live near the arboretum, so I can celebrate Lilac Sunday!

7. You can do it! Go, Carole, go!

8. I know you can do it 🙂 Love the green & purple together, gorgeous!!

9. Yes you will! I could bet ……..ah, whatever! Lilacs look to
   pretty and your socks are lovely also. I can smell the lilacs now!!

10. Love the contrasting toes and heels!

11. I miss lilacs! And I LOVE that yarn!

12. I knew you would beat the lilacs. I like the green on the heel. One of my favorite combinations is purple and green together (ha – I’m wearing that combo today as luck would have it).

13. So pretty. You are zooming!

14. Look at you go! I knew you could do it! 🙂

15. Darn it, I think I’ll lose my bet!

16. Love those colors! I feel inspired…

17. My lilacs are about where yours are, but I’m not making socks to go with ; ) I walked to the library yesterday evening and the whole neighborhood smells like crabapple blossoms.

18. Dang that’s some fast knitting. Can I send you a couple projects? ;op

    Speaking of which…ordered the yarn today. ;o)

19. Woo Hoo!

20. (New to your blog.) Both pictures are gorgeous but i think I like the socks better! 🙂

21. I still think it’s going to be to close to call. Love the color!!

22. They are both lovely, but the lilacs make me a bit homesick for my childhood home. We had lilacs all along the back fence, and every year a bunch went to a favorite teacher.

23. And both are gorgeous! Two of my neighbors had lilacs and both have cut them down over the last few years…it breaks my heart because I absolutely loved them.

24. Love the contrasting heels and toes!

25. WOW! That’s fast! The socks look great! (but oh those lilacs, I can almost smell them from here!)
    (((hugs)))

26. Pretty socks! I just got a whiff of a lilac bush yesterday. They are blooming around these parts.

27. Beautiful socks! You knit soooo fast! Hope I do…someday! 🙂

28. The lilacs and the socks are great. Perhaps it’ll be a photo finish. Heh. I crack myself up.
